## Description

NearbySafe Guard is the response companion to NearbySafe, the community<br>safety app. It is built for security guards and response teams who protect<br>a private NearbySafe community — an estate, neighbourhood watch, farm<br>compound, or family group.<br><br>HOW IT WORKS<br>• Your community admin creates a guard PIN in their NearbySafe app<br>• Open NearbySafe Guard, enter the 6-digit PIN — that&#39;s the whole sign-in.<br>  No phone number, no account, no subscription.<br>• From that moment the phone is on duty: when anyone in the community<br>  triggers an SOS, this phone sounds a loud alarm — even on silent or<br>  vibrate — with the person&#39;s name and live location on a map.<br><br>BUILT FOR RESPONDING<br>• See every active SOS in your community at a glance<br>• Open an SOS to see the exact location, get turn-by-turn directions,<br>  and see who else is responding<br>• Tap &quot;I&#39;m responding&quot; to share your position with the person in distress<br>• Mark yourself arrived, flag that medical or police help is needed, and<br>  resolve the event when it&#39;s handled<br><br>SIMPLE BY DESIGN<br>• One PIN per shift or per guard — the admin can revoke a PIN at any time,<br>  which signs its guards out instantly<br>• No personal information required from the guard<br>• Free for guards. The community&#39;s NearbySafe subscription covers it.<br><br>NearbySafe Guard only works with a PIN from a NearbySafe private<br>community.
